Screen saver goes to black screen

#1 (**permalink**) 03-12-2007, 02:45 PM

With my new Vista Ultimate I notice after a while the screen saver is gone
and the montior is black. Any way to keep the screen saver on all the time?
Thank you. Bob

Yes - Go to Control Panel - Power Options and set the options not to go to
standbye or turn off monitor.

Cheers,
Lara

Pick the one that is highlighted and click on "Change Plan Settings" written
underneath. Change the turn off Display to "Never"
